Motivated by parallel optimization, we experiment EDA-like adaptation-rules in the case of λ large. The rule we use, essentially based on estimation of multivariate normal algorit...
Abstract. A system for automatic composition using grammatical evolution is presented. Compositions are created under the constraints of a generative grammar, and under the bias of...
Abstract. The swarm metaphor stands for dynamic, complex interaction networks with the possibility of emergent phenomena. In this work, we present two games that challenge the vide...
In this paper, we study the perturbation operator of Iterated Local Search. To guide more efficiently the search to move towards new promising regions of the search space, we intro...
The problem of finding a symmetric connectivity topology with minimum power consumption in a wireless ad-hoc network is NPhard. This work presents a new iterated local search to s...
